AEASP 2022 Scholar Haroldo Nesbeth

Haroldo was born in Los Angeles, CA to Jamaican immigrant parents and is a first-generation college student. He has been singing individually and in choir for eight years and has wrestled for six. Interestingly, Haroldo came to college as a wrestling recruit and quickly developed a new passion to study the intersection between race and economics. Haroldo plans to pursue a PhD in Economics. Eventually, he would like to use his knowledge to come up with effective solutions for alleviating economic inequality in neighborhoods, communities, and schools in underserved communities. Haroldo feels privileged to be attending an institution like Trinity College.  However, he feels this is not the case for all black and minority students, therefore it is his goal to pay it forward.
